There are too many great bands out there that you’ve never heard of. Maybe they are too new, maybe they don’t have a lot of songs published, maybe they haven’t figured out the algorithm yet. Maybe they are analog in the digital world, or have a “bad” name, or just bad media maintenance.  Maybe, just maybe --they don’t give a #$%& if anybody ever hears about them. Well, as two members of their own band you’ve never heard of, we give a #$%&!!

BYNHOPOD is your best way to find out about these bands, one at a time. Each episode is a deep dive into their music, their videos, their social media presence, their overall vibe. BYNHOPOD is a music specialty show hosted by Adam “JR” Stoffel and Gary Hawthorne, Members of ToBe Fare, a band you’ve never heard of. But it’s not about us, it's about some ridiculously talented band that we somehow found on the internet, that needs to be heard. 

JR does the work to find the bands, then introduces them to Gary, In Real Time, on the show. Gary is a seasoned veteran musician with 40+ years of professional experience – Adding to the thoughts, opinions, and a willingness to tell it like it is, and he reacts real time to each new band’s offerings – with no filter. 

Do we judge the bands on their social media presence, name, videos and profile? HELL YES! Do we hold back any punches and just make it a fluff piece? HELL NO!! Are we gonna waste our time on a band that DOESN’T have the Mojo? @##$$%%^&** NO! (Ed. Note: The actual podcast is labeled explicit for a reason. We won’t mince the words – there will be no censorship on our podcast)

Then in part two of each show, we interview the band themselves. We treat them like the rock stars they are. These are not typically short fluff pieces, because we are there with them in the trenches of local musicdom.  We ask the questions that nobody else thinks to ask, we dive deep, we praise them for what they like, dog them for things that matter (or might not), find out what makes them do what they do, and try to find out why they aren’t a big, huge hit, yet. Better yet, since they are in two parts, you the audience can participate by asking your own questions of the BYNHOPOD band. Participation makes the world go round!
